US EditionTrump Administration to Propose Significant Rollback in Fuel Economy Standards: Report
The proposal aims to lower fuel economy targets to 34.5 mpg by 2031, potentially saving consumers $109 billion over five years, according to the Department of Transportation.
- On Wednesday at the White House, President Donald Trump will unveil a rollback of national fuel economy standards, with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration expected to propose lower 2022–2031 requirements.
- Earlier this year, U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy ordered NHTSA to rescind Biden-era standards, and legislation ended fuel-economy penalties for automakers.
- The prior rule estimated it would cut gasoline consumption by 64 billion gallons and lower emissions by 659 million metric tons with net benefits of $35.2 billion for drivers, while Chrysler-parent Stellantis paid $190.7 million and General Motors $128.2 million in civil penalties.
- Officials say the rollback aims to reduce automakers' production costs and help curb rising new-vehicle prices, building on steps that rescinded EV tax credits and limited California's authority.
- With enforcement changes already enacted, earlier this year legislation ended fuel-economy penalties and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said automakers faced no fines dating back to the 2022 model year, and the White House and National Highway Traffic Safety Administration did not immediately comment.
